Abstract: The recent Jewish holocaust has cut deep into the flesh of every Jew, In practically every Jewish home there is mention of relatives lost, of the agony of the Hitler days, the Warsaw Ghetto, the Eichmann trial, etc. If the Jewish school is to be an organic part of home and life, it cannot overlook an event that had so shattering an impact on the existence of all of us. It should further examine the extent to which the tragic phases of Jewish history be included in the curriculum of the Jewish school. At one of the sessions of the 37th Annual Conference of the NCJE, three speakers considered the educational implications of introducing the tragic events in Jewish history, especially the recent Jewish catastrophe, into the Jewish school curriculum, and the most effective method for making the coming Jewish generation cognizant of the heroic and spiritual values of Jewish tragedy. Their statements follow in order of presentation.
